Staff don't take the action of locking a thread without discussion and consensus-building. The decision was being considered long before you made your last post, and in fact was pretty much made before you posted - your post did create a bit of a problem which you and Nancy managed with wonderful cooperation, which all the staff appreciate. Some of the discussion was on the edge of subjects that need to be posted in the
Cider Press to ensure that Trolls don't invade and spread toxic nastiness.
